Nice aerial. That's a good turnout. About what I expected. I ended up not going. Figured I'd only stay about an hour and paying an additional $10 to drag kids around combined with 2.5 hours of drive time just didn't make sense. Too many home projects to work on. Considering last weekend I went camping and next week is HF and camping, this was really my only weekend to get stuff done.

 

I thought that was you!

 

But will be done for next weekend, right? Let me know if you need anything, I wanna see that rig wheel.

 

All depends on the parts fairy. Everything but the mixer (carb replacement) is installed and plumbed. Needs Teflon on two fittings and two water lines run
It's really not much, but without that carb base I'm dead in the water.

 

I want to go up hills without the truck shutting off!

 

Heading up to the shop in the morning. Couldn't be more excited!

​

 

I have to work at COTA all weekend.

 

Dammit man. No worries, we'll have another one.

 

Edited, please read. It concerns dinner after Hidden Falls.

 

Is it on yet?

 

Morning all got rained out saw a couple bucks they were to small. But had fun none the less.

 

Is it on yeti?

Alright, I have to ask,

I'm at the end of my rope with all this low skills, no skills crap.

I'm currently working for Firestone on FM 620 in Austin
I'm a "B" tech being paid 20 per flag hr.....I'm there 60 hrs per week but paid only 40
(Firestone has a 30 hr "buffer") majority of the work is tyres and oil changes........ever try to pull 60 hrs off of crap that pays 45 min at most? my calculations put it at 3-4 vehicles per hr star to finish.......fine if you have two lifts or a long pit.

So, my monthly BILLS are 3k before food,fuel,diapers........
I currently only pull 600 a week......

so, my question.....Anyone have a friend or family or anyone here work for a dealership or repair shop or anyplace else that has real work?

for those that want to know what I can do, PM and I will send you a resume.

appreciate any help in advance.

 

I can't find the original post to quote it.

I like food. I'm generally pretty easy and open to whatever... Unless it's something I don't like. Actually, then I'll probably just stay quiet and scavenge for myself. BBQ sounds good though.

Side note, I'm considering "skipping" the wheeling portion and riding along as a passenger. I'd like to be more mobile so I can get a bunch of pictures. Maybe break out the drone for some action shots. Just need someone to ride with.

 

I should have an open seat, but no AC FYI
